Google launches Gemini Decisions API for fast, calibrated AI choices

Google has launched the Gemini Decisions API, featuring the new Gemini Decision 1 model, designed for rapid, closed-set decision-making. This API processes multimodal inputs and evaluates up to 1,000 questions in a single pass, returning probabilities and confidence scores with low latency and zero output token costs. It aims to streamline agent functions like tool selection and policy checks, offering improved calibration and cost-efficiency compared to traditional generative models. AI

IMPACT This specialized API could accelerate agent development by providing faster, more reliable decision-making primitives for tasks like tool selection and routing.
